The one and only free public forum for Bohras. The focus of this forum is the reform movement, the Dawoodi Bohra faith and, of course, the corrupt priesthood. But the discussion is in no way restricted to the Bohras alone.

COASTWEEK NEWSPAPER, KENYA -- His Holiness was very warmly received this week by H.E. The President Uhuru Kenyatta at State House, Nairobi whereby the President affirmed the government’s commitment to freedom of worship, saying Kenya is a multi-religious, multi- cultural and multi-racial country. His spirit of humanity and compassion is respected all over the world.

Dr Syedna’s unswerving philanthropic contributions and assistance to innumerable medical institutions and human welfare activities across the globe has ensured a remedial change in many a life regardless of class, creed and colour. His Holiness is also contributing phenomenally in spreading the message of love, harmony and brotherhood amongst humanity.

His Holiness’s has been honoured for his noble services to the cause of humanity and has received various International awards and honours.

During His Holiness’s visit to Kenya, His message to his followers is the message of The Holy Prophet (PBUH) of that:
“To be faithful to their country of abode”

does this mean that he is encouraging abdes to marry black african women? surely that would be the ultimate way in integrating with the country of your adoption, showing patriotism and respect for its people??

secondly, unless required for business, all abdes should invest their earnings within their country of abode? transferring huge sums of money out through illegal channels should be declared haraam and subject to summary baraat??

This is a bunch of hogwash. Medical Institutions across the globe, and harmony and brotherhood amongst humanity!

Kothar, through the Hebatullahs and Shehzadas, has amassed enormous wealth through wajebaat pressure on Abdes. To have the President of Kenya invite SMS at State House in Nairobi is no easy task. Also to have the deputy President visit SMS in Mombasa mosque is not an easy task either. Also to have the governor of Mombasa to receive SMS at the airport is 'lajawaab'. Police escorts, entourage of ministers do not come cheap.

The President and vice President were architects of the massacre that followed their rigged election four years ago. The governor of Mombasa was last month indicted of massive tax evasion at Mombasa Port. SMS and the politicians are all cut from the same cloth. Their common currency is money and it greases a lot of wheels. Money buys hunting licenses, sheikhdoms, ziafat, choice suff at mosques; the list is endless.

Received below message from Dar Es Salaam Tanzania. He was killed in a car accident on the way to hunting trip. They were on their way for a big Hunt but this time SMS was supposed to follow them a day later They were booked to kill an Elephant and an injured lion.
He was only 41 years old,
====================================
Shz Jafferus Sadiq BS Imamduddin Saheb na Diwan *Shk Mustafa bhai Currim* has passed away.
Dafan time today in Dar es Salaam will be announced shortly.

this joker can only play this kind of game with the greedy government of these african countries where bribe is rampant. Birds of the same feather flock together.
why does this joker need to come to Africa for rest? what has he done to deserve rest. Probasbly extending his hand to the abdes to kiss and load it with money.
Mr. Joker pehli apni ayashi khatam karo to phir doodh aur pani alag se nazar aiye ga.

RSS had to change its plan to hoist the national flag at a madrassa in Nagpur as part of its Independence Day celebrations after objections from local seminaries.

BJP's ideological mentor instead chose a “friendlier“ turf -Dawoodi Bohra Colony -after failing to get “good response“ in Muslim-dominated localities such as Mominpura and Jaffar Nagar to hoist the national flag.

RSS member Indresh Kumar, who also heads Muslim Rashtriya Manch (MRM), addressed an event in the north Nagpur locality on Monday .Bohras are Shia Muslims and belong to a trading community close to RSS and BJP . They accept their Hindu roots, a fact mentioned at the event.

“Madrassas were reluctant because the event was to be addressed by Kumar, one of the accused in 2007 Ajmer dargah blast case, though he was later acquitted. Later, the Dawoodi Bohra Colony was chosen,“ said a community leader in the locality .

MRM, however, said the colony was chosen as no madrassa had enough space. The event was attended by only 150 residents. Madrassas also said they already celebrated the two events, and did not need lessons in patriotism from RSS. At the event, Kumar announced that RSS would form an “anti-terror cell“ to get Muslim youths back from terror outfits.

There's certainly no problem in jointly hoisting national flag and celebrating Independence day as long as the "Joint Partner" is not anti-national and is the one which celebrated Independence day as "Black Day" and refused to hoist the national flag in any of its offices for 60 plus years till such time that its stooges came to power.

Bohra women on Tuesday woke up to several audio clippings issuing directives on how they are to dress conservatively and chuck their modern ridas (the traditional Bohra attire for women) for the more traditional ones during Muharram.

By Wednesday evening, these clippings had gone viral, though there was no clarity on who issued these. The women in the audio could be heard saying that Shehzadi Saheba (women in the Syedna's family are referred to as Shehzadi Saheba) has said that comfortable rida's are better for matam (mourning). "Dont wear red, pink, black or their shades. The paneling on the rida should not be more than 12 inches and they have to be comfortable to be worn in crowded places during Muharram," the woman in the audio insists in Gujarati. She further narrows down her guidelines, directing women to not wear contrast blouses and socks with the rida.

The audio clip also said that women should not wear a lot of jewellery or cosmetics.

Last year, Syedna Mufaddal Saiffudin had spurred a debate after he issued a diktat that community members should attend sermons on all the 10 days of Muharram. As the audio clips of dressing guidelines went viral, the community members thought that it was yet another diktat from the community head.

However, a spokesperson from his office denied sending the audio. "The audio seems like a random gathering of people which has been recorded. It is not from our side. We don't know why they have quoted Shehzadi Saheba," said a spokesperson.

Over the years, the traditional ridas have got a modern touch and women today wear ridas with different color panels. Some prefer the rida to be body-hugging and some play around with colors of the blouses and socks. But seniors in the community feel that the modernised ridas are not appropriate for the pious Muharram period -- a period of mourning - scheduled to commence on October 1.

A 50-year-old Bohra woman from Andheri expressed her disapproval that despite the sensitivity of the period, many women wore shiny ridas, jewellery and cosmetics. However, a 30-year-old Bohra woman from South Mumbai said that such guidelines only show the community in poor light. "Most women have the sense to dress as the situation demands. But such precise guidelines are completely unwanted," she added.

A Bohra who owes allegiance to Syedna Mufaddal Saiffudin's rival claimant Taher Fakhruddin, said, "It feels like we are back to school."

exactly, most bohra has sense to dress and to attend muharram and other important majlises...
such stupid guidelines makes it like no one knows any thing and only mufflo is in control...
the more muflo tries to grip community more he will lose.

He is not even fatherly figure whom people will respect. he is just another muflo.

Muffy gave raza for this child rapist to be allowed to come to masjid on the 8th night to listen to hes worldwide relayed waaz and gain barakat. He was again allowed to come on the asura day but no wagaryaw of sagwara and banswara was allowed to talk to him. Jaman was served to him in a container as no one would sit with the child rapist, the so called jungli bearded shaikh.

Apparently he was granted special leave on a religious grounds and for good behaviour, but above all, muflo the sahebul mojizat did dua for all the bohri prisoners around the globe and bingo, god listened to Muffy's dua and this criminal child rapist; kuwaiti wagaryo shaitan was granted bail for 3 days to observe asura with his master of crimes, Muffy muffin

It already has because watsup msgs are being circulated in abde circles claiming that a MAJOR mishap was averted due to Muffy's presence and his dua ! BTW It was a chartered flight ferrying Muffy's 7 henchmen !
